Can you explain how you employ it? </strong>In its purest definition, orthodox means an, "adherence to an approved form of doctrine, philosophy, or ideology." Here, at Orthodox, we are creating a lifestyle brand with its own personality and identity. This doesn't imply a perpetual monotony. Fashion evolves and so will Orthodox, but it will do so while retaining our own, peculiar DNA.<br /> <br /><strong>There's like 5 billion men's wear lines out there, why should I buy yours?</strong> Because we are the bestest in the whole wide world... kidding. We have created a look and feel that is unique in the marketplace. People want to feel unique. In a world of faceless multiplicity, people want to feel like they have identity. Clothing is one of the easiest ways of expressing one's personality and identity. So here at Orthodox we offer the medium of clothing as a means of self expression. We provide forwardly fashionable garments with an intellectually masculine aesthetic. And what man out there doesn't want to be a fashion forward, intellectual man? <br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Orthodox S/S 08</strong></p><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/orthodox-s-s-08/843822/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/picture-17_thumbnail.png" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/orthodox-s-s-08/843925/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/picture-21_thumbnail.png" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/orthodox-s-s-08/843926/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/picture-20_thumbnail.png" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/orthodox-s-s-08/868395/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/picture-19_thumbnail.png" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://"www.styledash.com"/photos/orthodox-s-s-08/868397/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/picture-22_thumbnail.png" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/19/indie-designer-interview-eric-niccoli-of-orthodox/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Indie Designer Interview: Eric Niccoli of Orthodox</em></a></p><h6 style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"></h6><a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/19/indie-designer-interview-eric-niccoli-of-orthodox/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/forward/1221174/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/19/indie-designer-interview-eric-niccoli-of-orthodox/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a><br /><br /><p><map name="google_ad_map_155-1221174"><area shape="rect" href="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/imgclick/155-1221174?pos=0" coords="1,2,367,28" /><area shape="rect" href="http://services.google.com/feedback/abg" coords="384,10,453,23" /></map><img usemap="#google_ad_map_155-1221174" border="0" src="http://imageads.googleadservices.com/pagead/ads?format=468x30_aff_img&amp;client=ca-pub-3546992251556849&amp;channel=21&amp;output=png&amp;cuid=155-1221174&amp;url=http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/19/indie-designer-interview-eric-niccoli-of-orthodox/" /></p>]]></description><category>designers</category><category>independent fashion</category><category>IndependentFashion</category><category>indie designer interviews</category><category>IndieDesignerInterviews</category><category>interviews</category><category>menswear</category><category>orthodox</category><dc:creator>Michael Cohen</dc:creator><dc:date>2008-06-19T10:01:00 00:00</dc:date></item><item><title>Indie Designer Interivews: Kristy Lee Jewelry</title><link>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/17/indie-designer-interivews-kristy-lee-jewelry/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/17/indie-designer-interivews-kristy-lee-jewelry/</guid><comments>http://www.styledash.com/2008/06/17/indie-designer-interivews-kristy-lee-jewelry/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/jewelry/" rel="tag">Jewelry</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/interviews/" rel="tag">Interviews</a>, <a href="http://www.styledash.com/category/under-the-radar/" rel="tag">Under the Radar</a></p><img vspace="4" hspace="4" align="right" alt="" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.styledash.com/media/2008/06/kristylee.jpg" /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">We love all of the amazin</span><span style="font-style: italic;">g independent designers out there.
